An architect typically works with a variety of external consultants throughout the design and construction process of a building project. These consultants may include structural engineers, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, and other specialists who provide specialized expertise in areas such as acoustics, lighting, and fire protection.
The architect is also responsible for coordinating the work of these consultants, ensuring that their designs are compatible with the overall design concept and that they meet all necessary codes and regulations.
